My family has always been patriotic and proud of the men and women who have served and currently serve our Country. However it wasn't until now that I gained MUCH respect for the families and wives of the men and women that are away fighting for people's freedom, like mine. Three weeks ago I met a guy who has impacted my life for the best. We talked for awhile, and come to find out he's leaving for the army in January. My heart dropped when I heard this, I didn't know whether I was sad or proud. After many conversations about why he wanted to become apart of the Army and what we were going to do when he did, I was extremely proud to know a guy that was willing to leave everything behind to serve his country. I have great respect for you wives and families that have family members currently serving our great nation. Nobody knows how difficult it is to love someone and not be able to see them for a long length of time because they are away at war. I don't even know how to experience that emotion yet....So then why am I writing this? You may ask.
I believe that in today's society we have decreased the amount of respect we pay to all of our fellow citizens who have served and currently serve our nation. Whether it be the Marines, Coast Guard, Army, Navy, Air force, etc. I thank you!! Words can't describe how grateful and proud of you guys I am. It not only takes talent and strength, but lots of determination and mind power to give up a part of your life to fight for your Country. MY HAT'S OFF TO YOU!! As for wives of soldiers, mothers of sons, and family members to defenders of our Country I thank you for everything you do and for supporting your loved one's as they make an impact on average people's lives, like mine. :)
